Portnacon is a small remote crofting township, and former fishing station,[1] on the west shore of Loch Eriboll in Sutherland, Scottish Highlands in the Scottish council area of Highland.

The township is in the parish of Durness and Durness village lies 8 miles (13 km) west along the A838 road.

The village of Laid is located 1 mile (1.6 km) south-west from Portnancon along the A838.

Only a few buildings remain of the fishing station, in Portnacon, or Port-na-con, meaning "Port of the Dogs".

The fishing pier was also used by a ferry, which crossed the loch until the 1930s.
